Contrarian Trading Techniques

Contrarian Trading is a style of trading that goes against what the masses are doing at the time.

Using several key indicators, we can pinpoint huge shifts in the crowds before they happen.

This allows us to buy a stock just before it takes off in one direction or another.

The concepts we use are similar to that of Contrarian Investing, but there is one blaring difference, we hold positions for an average of 2 - 6 weeks instead of 5 - 10 years.

We often take profits after holding a position for just 1 week. In recent years, Contrarian Trading has been presented with enormous opportunities, and it has been growing every day.
